She brings to mind visions of her youth and the cause of her being still an old maid. In love with Benjie, of the same village, she was happy, as they went to school hand-in-hand. By young-adulthood they were still in love and planning a future of happiness together. "But once, with angry words they part," and Dorothy, repentant, watches and waits by the empty gate for Benjie, who comes no more. Then one day she hears of his marriage to another. Years pass and Benjie, successful in business, has grown old and crabbed and wrinkled, while Dorothy sits among her attic treasures, still sweet-faced and kind-eyed, content in her faithfulness to her lost love.
